*Bangkok Chameleon in a Shifting World *This lecture will explore Bangkok as a constantly changing city where spontaneous architectural arrangements can be seen on everyday streets. These structures not only provide localized responses but also reflect the “native wisdom” of local lifestyles. By examining these phenomena, which appear in various forms across other Asian cities, the lecture will illustrate how Bangkok and Thailand’s architecture can serve as a prototypical response mechanism for urban adaptation.

Jenchieh Hung and Kulthida Songkittipakdee founded HAS Design and Research in Bangkok and Shanghai. Recognized as leading architects of their generation, they are renowned for their innovative architectural designs, as highlighted in the “World Architects Directory” of Wallpaper* magazine. Their work has gained international acclaim through winning competition entries, and they are known for their synthesis of form, pattern, material, and technology into unique, cohesive constructions. Besides their practice, Hung And Songkittipakdee (HAS) have been actively involved in academia as visiting professors at Tongji University – College of Architecture and Urban Planning and have served as guest editors for the Journal of the Architects Regional Council Asia (ARCASIA). Recently, HAS Design and Research received the Thematic Pavilion of the Year Award at The Association of Siamese Architects under Royal Patronage Exposition (ASA Architect Expo 2024) in Thailand.
